Refinish Magnesium wheels?

I've got the opportunity to pick up a set of the optional magnesium wheels for my '04 Mag Red coupe. (love the mag wheels on magnetic red)

One of the wheels has a chip in the finish though and I would like to have it refinished if I purchase them.

What's the best way to go about color matching the powder coating? Is there a color code?

Thanks!

Some of the corvette specialty companies sell a touch up paint that works very well.

I ordered mine with the car since her birth. They take care and will tolerate 0.0 abuse.

Get some GM Scratch Fix. I got it at Auto Zone. Dead on match for any touch up. #NG GM 482 Light drift sand met. 49, WA220C General Motors

I have a set and opted to just get them powdercoated and made like new. I was finding it hard to get anything to match and look correct.
